Blood bath....whoa.

I have to admit, Ellie is really cute. She and Sophie share some character chemistry that I think are entertaining. There's toy figures we see from the show. These girls really love their hobbies lol

Lot's of cats this episode.
Ellie was pretty funny and she seems like a nice addition tho Akari wasn't bitten.
Now the question is when will Akari be bitten.

I wish she was 2 but it must take a few different things to turn her into a vampire since the girl in episode 3 turned her family bc she didn't act like she was worried that it would turn her.
Also Akari did flinch a little when Ellie was trying to kiss Sophie but she never even took a second to worry about a love triangle which was a little odd tbh but she is a little slow lol

Is it just me or is this episode felt a bit weaker then the previous ones? Sure, we got introduced to Ellie, but I don't really like her yet. Maybe she still has to grown on me. For now Sophie-chan still is the best girl imo. :-P

I liked Ellie, I hope we see more of her. I found her statement about calling human monsters for eating flesh and organs kinda amusing given she's a vampire, we're all just monsters aren't we? XD

Akari is still the greatest monster of em all. :3

Such a delightful series. I even had a few hard chuckles with this episode! Especially the coffin scene, that was hilarious.

This show is so funny haha. Best moment was when Akari went to get a camera, that really cracked me up.

So we have a Serial Killer in a moe Slice-of-Life series now. Sasuga Japan!

Seriously, Ellie can only be Elizabeth Bathory. She bathes in blood, lived 450 years ago, has used iron maidens in the past, and she likes to attack cute girls. That's the Bloody Countess, definetly.

Teehee, I wonder how many people were able to figure out what movie Sophie was referring to when she made that statement about how much movies had changed. Also, people getting crucified through social media instead of lynch mobs is so accurate in today's world.

The scene about how fragile human and vampire relationships can be was really well done. Ellie is still living in the past although it's not surprising since she was asleep for a whole century. The way Akari was able to defuse the whole situation when Ellie tried to take Sophie away was both hilarious yet touching. Instead of making it into an argument Ellie accepted that times had changed and there was no reason to live like the old days.
"You talk too much. Think too much."
"I don't care how justified you think your reasons are. I won't tolerate liars or thieves."
"If you're not going to be nice to me, don't expect me to be nice to you."
"I'm a soldier, not a superhero. Don't ever think of me as one."
"The world doesn't revolve around you. Get that through your thick skull."
"People who live by their emotions go nowhere in their lives. They only find misery.
"If you don't like the way your life is than do something about it instead of sitting there feeling sorry for yourself."
"You want something go get it. Period."

I guess Ellie is back to be her neighbor, she sure loves Sophie.

Those shoujo Ai moments were funny, I look forward to her stay in the show.

Ellie is pleasantly "evil" for a character in a cute series like this. The iron maiden bit made me laugh. Plus, it makes it clear that vampires are potentially more dangerous in this universe than you'd think, given how laid-back Sophie is.

I also like the fact that she's been asleep for the past century. It brings an interesting perspective to the story up to this point.

Funny when Ellie still try to use the mirror. Must have been a big surprise waking up after 100 years. Human technology has advanced so much. If she slept for 100 years and woke up in 2018.. I guess she never saw WW1 and WW2.. which is a good thing I guess.

The characters of this anime series, are really interesting, thanks to the fact that they have their own distinct individuality, despite the narration does not present any basic originality. Some situations were really funny, like Elly's bath in the blood.

The WW1 did: because the WW1 ended at 1918 (1914-1918).

Ellie is a cute! A new girl joins the cast and she's a vampire as Sophie.

That blood bath, gotta love how she was like "humans are terrifying, look at what they eat!" after doing that herself xDD

Seeing Sophie react both like "leave me alone" but at the same time wanting to be with Ellie more was adorable, and well, she will now have all the time of the world to see her, because she's going to live nearby!

The spooky transition scenes were spooky.

Definitely so. The anime didn't give her exact age, unlike the manga, but in that case it definitely checked out. To quote my post from the relevant manga chapter:

"There's nothing like a bloodbath to get your skin all smooth!"

Named Ellie...

*checks her age and year the manga was published*

Well, I'll be damn, it's Elizabeth Báthory herself...

I agree, also the obsession with beauty products, ties into the blood bath. I love that they gave her a nod with this character. This is such a cute cgdct. πŸ’–

It was a very good episode and I must say that I really liked Ellie's character. And the idea that she may probably be Elizabeth Báthory made her actions even more interesting to see since this is basically a moe show and I didn't expect such dark character to appear.

All in all, I really liked this episode and I'm looking forward to see more of Ellie.

Also, the makeup scene was funnier than I thought it would be. But the scenes where Ellie was about to bite either Sophie or Akari and that rather... "suggestive" background melody started playing... that really made me laugh a lot xD

To confirm this, her profile says she was born August 1560, same month and year as Elizabeth Bathory (August 7, 1560).
